Leave No One Behind - End Violence against Women and Girls

MMS special announcement on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women

UN Women Tomorrow we will celebrate the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women! “One in three women and girls experience violence in their lifetime—that is one too many. It happens in every country and every society. It happens at home, in schools, on the streets, at work, on the internet and in refugee camps. It happens during war, and even in the absence of war. Too often, it is normalized and goes unpunished. No matter where violence against women happens, what form it takes, and whom it impacts, it must be stopped. The promise of the Sustainable Development Goals—to leave no one behind—cannot be fulfilled without ending violence against women”.
